Studies suggest that a weighted blanket engineered to be around 10% of your body weight can help promote better sleep. Utilizing glass beads sewn into small compartments, this Puro weighted blanket helps ground your body when you're asleep by pushing it downwards, producing a deeply calming effect, as well as deep pressure touch (DPT), a type of therapy that uses firm, hands-on pressure to reduce chronic stress and high levels of anxiety.
